Default Camera problem

Not sure if it's a bug or not wasn't sure where to put this. But the 5th camera view for me auto zooms into my character till it's about 2inch away. I've tried playing with hotkeys for the camera controls and relogging, trying to move the camera in anyway but to no avail.

All the other camera views appear to function normally as well.

Pressing the 'Home' key will reset your camera to normal height/angle.

Use your mouse wheel to scroll out and play in third person view. It's easy to control, easy to manage, and you end up never switching to any other view except on difficult pulls and for screenshots.

I'll add another camera issue that is really annoying when pulling outdoor zones.

In distant 3rd person view, when you zoom in the camera will tilt slightly towards your character, and tilt back up when you zoom out to keep your character center on the screen. However, when you enter water, the camera gets permanently screwed up until you zone or relog. After entering water (and going back to land), the camera never tilts and instead just zooms right above your head, so you can't see what's going on when you zoom in a bit.

I use 3rd person to pull outdoor zones sometimes and then like to zoom in quickly when fighting to position easier, and the bug is annoying enough that I avoid water at all cost.

I also always play third person and I agree the water thing is annoying. But once again, all I have to do is hit the 'Home' key and it resets itself back to normal. :/

Cool. Saw the earlier post but hadn't tried it yet to see if it fixes my problem. Good enough

I found that creating a new camera hot key like Cntrl + C, instead of using the normal camera one fixed this for me.
